CONNER-HEGEWALD HOUSE HISTORY

A frame, late Queen Anne style home was built on property once owned by Washington C. DePauw. William C. Conner purchased the new house in July 1906. Mr. Conner was proprietor of William C. Conner Wallpaper Co., located on East Market Street in the downtown area. In May 1918, the property was sold to Edwin C. Hegewald, secretary and treasurer of Charles Hegewald Co., located on Water Street between State & West 1st in downtown New Albany. The company made stationary and steamboat boilers and machinery, glass works machinery, all sorts of brass and iron castings, smokestacks, sheet iron and steel work, and mill supplies. By 1939, Edward and Aldora Cummings had purchased the home. Mr. Cummings was associated with the E. M. Cummings & Son Veneer Co., still located at East 4th and Oak Streets in downtown New Albany. In July 1942, and for the next thirty-two years, the house was home to the Edward A. Flocken family. The Vessels family lovingly made it their home for the last 43 years.

ABOUT MANSION ROW

East Main and Market Streets contain the city’s finest concentration of historic residential properties, chronicling the rise in prominence of an Ohio River town from its pioneer days to the Gilded Age of the 19th century and beyond. New Albany’s Mansion Row was the city’s first designated historic district and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

The New Albany Historic Preservation Commission (NAHPC) is a city-appointed body that administers design review in New Albany’s local historic districts, including Mansion Row. The NAHPC works in cooperation with the City of New Albany and others to preserve the character and fabric of historically significant areas and structions for all present and future citizens of New Albany. Therefore, any exterior alterations must be reviewed and approved by the New Albany Historic Preservation Commission through the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA). For more information contact the City of New Albany at 812-948-5333 or Indiana Landmarks at 812-284-4534.
